Some are good, some aren't so great.

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
why is there no hip-hop/R&B on there?!?!

Juelz Santana's video for Shottas is the greatest video all year!

It happens that many indie/low-budget music videos are much more creative than most of the stuff pumped by MTV Brainwashing Corp. Some of them aren't exactly cheap, I am pretty sure that Gorillaz and Aphex Twin's were kind of expensive.

Rubber Johny is still creeping the fuck out of me, BTW.

I realize that. But as much as I love the Wolf Parade album, the video for 'Shine A Light' is pretty shit. M83 video sucks too (song is great, of course).

I get moist thinking about the lead singer of the Cardigans.


Thier video for "My Favorite Game" is still one of my all-time favs.

There was a period when the music video was in its death throes. MTV2 stopped its open format. MTV only played from a pool of 50-60 high-end label acts, whose videos were prohibitively expensive.

Thankfully, we're experiencing a renaissance mostly low-budget, imaginative music videos, mostly from indie-minded bands. I too am disappointed that hip-hop is under-represented in this list, though.

So what Channel plays these types of videos? Everytime I turn to MTV2,Fuse, etc, its nothing but hip hop. If only My cable company carried Austin Music Network.

There's a show called Subterranean on MTV2. That's who shows it.
